April weather forecast
Colombia, Cuba

April, the same as March, in Colombia, Cuba, is a hot spring month, with an average temperature ranging between max 31.8°C (89.2°F) and min 21.4°C (70.5°F).

Temperature

Colombia experiences a recorded average high-temperature of a still hot 31.8°C (89.2°F) in April, closely aligned with March's 30.2°C (86.4°F). Throughout April, the average low-temperature in Colombia records at an agreeable 21.4°C (70.5°F).

Heat index

April's heat index is estimated at an extremely hot 41°C (105.8°F). Implement more safety precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may happen. Persistent activity could induce heatstroke.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

Humidity

In April, the average relative humidity is 72%.

Rainfall

In Colombia, in April, it is raining for 16.6 days, with typically 47mm (1.85") of accumulated precipitation. In Colombia, during the entire year, the rain falls for 202.5 days and collects up to 785mm (30.91") of precipitation.

On the first day of April in Colombia, Cuba, sunrise is at 07:02 and sunset at 19:24. On the last day of the month, sunrise is at 06:39 and sunset at 19:34 CDT.

Sunshine

In Colombia, the average sunshine in April is 10.2h.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index are April through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.
Note: In April, the maximum UV index of 7 suggests this advice:
Sidestep overexposure. Individuals with fair complexions risk burning in fewer than 20 minutes. The Sun's UV radiation is at its strongest between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Minimize direct exposure to the sun during this period. Employ a wide-brim hat for potent defense against up to 50% of UV rays.
